All the people featured in the video seem to be extremely flexible (more like ballet dancer flexible not so much yoga), and the quality is mediocre at best. It feels like a cheap 80′s setting.

I did not enjoy, I did not sweat and I really won’t do it again. If anyone wants my DVD they can have it for free.

Not even comparable to Rodney Yee.

The sequences of the poses, and Bryan’s explanation, are very good. Bryan’s constant reminder of adapting the asanas to your own body, and his emphasis of breathing are extremely valuable for someone who is still learning the ropes about yoga.

The DVD editing, and the video quality can be improved, however. Sometimes I think due to trying to fit 3 sessions onto a single DVD, the editor had to cut some repetitions, making following the exact movement and breathing a bit difficult. This may have contributed some other users’ complaints about not having enough warm up. Video and audio quality are mediocre, especially the voice recording is not always the best, even metalic sometimes. With that said, it is a good value for having all 3 levels in one. I wouldn’t mind paying a little more for a better production quality video though.

All-in-all, you’ll either love the teaching style of Bryan Kest, hate it, or, like me, enjoy it for a change. You can work up a sweat with this one.

WARNING: Do not look him in the eye. His yogi eyes and manly eyebrows will stare at you through your TV and into your soul. You will be mesmerized by all the hairless, bare chested men bending and stretching. This is to say nothing of the woman in the awesomely tacky thong.

SPOILER ALERT!: The best scene is at the end of the third workout where a shirtless Brian Kest leans on another shirtless dude and puts his cheek on the guy’s back with Bryan’s awesome curly hair cascading down the other dude’s back. If you put that in a parody about yoga, it’s so over the top that no one would believe it.

This DVD has 3 different workouts, basically easy, medium and hard. Honestly though? The Easy is NOT all that easy. It’s a tough workout, from start to finish, true to its name “Power Yoga”. After doing The first workout twice a week for the last 3 weeks, my muscles are getting so much more strong, firm, and their shaping up beautifully! I just began working on the second workout, and I LOVE it. It’s probably my favorite of the three. I still can’t quite do the third one, it’s incredibly difficult. We got to “Crow pose” and I immediately went back to the second workout, haha. However, in keeping up with this, I have no dbout that I’ll be able to do the third workout in no time!

My boyfriend loves this DVD and asks to do it with me frequently throughout the week. He’s your classic weight-lifting kind of person, and he thinks this is a great DVD. So it’s certainly breaks the stereotype that yoga is only for females (although anyone who really does yoga knows that’s a silly

stereotype). This DVD kicks his butt everytime too!

Also, I can’t forget, Bryan is an excellent teacher! He teaches in a very calming manner, constantly reminding the student to focus on their breathing, that if you’re breathing is stressed then you need to relax your muscles and face and let go. He also is consistently reminding us that everyone is at different levels and there is no such thing as a perfect pose. The things he discusses during the workouts are key to doing any yoga practice!

Highly recommended, get it, keep it at the top of your pile of workout dvds, do it a few times a week and you won’t regret it!
